Vintage Quilt Along

Have you seen “Farm Girl Vintage” yet?

It’s a quilt book, written by Lori Holt, over at Bee in my Bonnet.

In honor of her book release, the fabulous Ms. Holt is hosting a quilt along.

I was on the fence about participating,

until I started seeing the cuteness of these blocks.

Last Friday, she even gave away a free pattern on her blog for the adorable pincushion!

I tell ya, I haven’t been this gone about a quilt pattern

or fabric collection in quite a while!

The vintage-y cuteness just got ahold of me!

Incidentally, the tiny pedestal my pincushion rests on was

also Ms. Holt’s idea! She used a thrifted plate and candleholder.

I found a vintage plate with curled edges at Goodwill,

and the candleholder is from the dollar store!

A little epoxy-type glue, and pinning is elevated to a new level!

Check out Bee in my Bonnet for lots more information, patterns, a link to buy the book, etc.

And, if you’re playing along on social media,

you can use the hashtag #farmgirlfridays to see other people’s projects and be social!.

Happy Vintage Sewing!
